I was back from Munich yesterday evening, but was to tired to upload anything, so here are a few videos and photos I took. Unlike some of you I thought it was AMAZING! Maybe because it was my first Celine concert, but I really liked it. I won't go into detailed reviews, you guys pretty much covered all of it. The crowd was great, and the vocals… well it was Celine

She went insane on a last few songs when we came up to the stage... You could really see she enjoyed it and gave 200% more! Security should loosen up a bit on those concerts!

It was fun meeting some of you guys here… Nice to put some faces to the manes here

There are more videos on the way, but it takes forever on youtube

God thank you for your videos and pictures, they are really amazing!
Are you going to upoload the other videos too? Which songs did you recorder?
Thank you ... really!!!

Oh, and I do agree with who said it's been a great show!
Ok, I was in the front row, probably also for this reason it seemed to me amazing ... but I really felt Céline was happy to be there, when we were all under the stage she was getting more and more powerfull!!! I saw her so touched to have all the crowd under her feet that way!!!
Totally agree with Snowhite

I think it also depends a LOT on where you are seated. If you're in the front, you'll have the time of your life....as your're *IN* the middle of all the fun, interaction and the show. But if you're further at the back, you're more objective, the crowd tends to be [a bit] less enthousiastic and you have a better overview of everything....

Basically, I think that at whatever concert you are; when you're at the front you *always* have the best time and think it's an absolutely fantastic show..

You are right.i was seating at a very good seat.But i don't allow people exagerate and say that Celine's concert was like a mc donalds menou!What is that?Is a german joke?What?I travelled from Athens to Munich just to see her and scream SAGAPAO and to have a great time.And i had it.
If it's like a mc donalds menu,so then  i would like to eat it everyday!!!

Lol, don't worry about it....the main thing what matters is your own personal opinion/experience.  
As long as you loved it and had the time of your life....that's the most important thing!  

If someone else didn't enjoy it (as much as you did), then that's unfortunate.. they'll know better for next time.

[kathy4]

was the stage in the center or was it an end stage?

[freakyali]

it was an end stage!

[celínico_sin_remedio]

Thanks for all the photos and videos!!!
They're beautiful!

But I'm dying to see that TOTALLY NEW INTRO...

MartinMunich - I couln`t agree more with you- unfortunatly.   
I am relieved that I am not the only one who is disappointed
Well  - acctually I was expecting to feel like that before the concert

The quite empty stadion was dissaponting
and I had the bad luck, that the people around me didn t even clap, some leaved before LCMM (Block 1)!

I missed passion and fun in Celine`s performance , she didnt show a lot of ambition to get in touch with the audiance

there were technical problems as well - the video screens weren't synch to the sound, she obvioursly used playback, which is really an inpertinance considering the ticket price!   

The greatest moment for me was "My love" and I enjoyed "Man's world"

So I try to keep the memories of the overwhelming, fabulous 1999 concert in Munich

Anna

that´s how I felt as well - I was really so ready to have a great time, and I was still screaming like mad, had no voice anymore yesterday and we were up on our feet almost the whole concert. still had a good time, but the good feeling was gone pretty fast - like you compare a mcdonalds-menu to a 5-star-menu - and celine felt like the burger this time.
people were irritaded by this extremely simple stage setup - a woman behind us said that this stage reminds her of the rewe-fest (which is a family thing from a supermarket chain).
the show was lacking any sort of concept, looked rushed together - the sound was terrible as well.
and you can tell the she was not into this old songs anymore - and who could blame her?
other artist are reinventing themselves, give their old songs a new sound or a new arrangement - but she is lip-synching to a 10-year-old-playback from "my heart will go on" - of course she is bored to death.
she is still a true professional - and she wants to deliver a good show nontheless, but you can tell that the magic is gone.
she is a hard worker, and it felt like work - not like fun.

i hate to always quote the concert from ten years ago - but this is like day and night.

this "rock"-approach is so lame and does not fit her at all - the more elegant sound of "eyes on me" was much better for her (didn´t like that song on the record though).

i think that her management made a lot of wrong decisions lately - rushing this tour together, booking too many, too large venues and delivering a cheap uninspired concert.

i think she lost more fans with this tour than she won. unfortunatelly (papers today report of 14,500 visitors)

the magic is gone - i hope she finds her way back after having a well deserved break.

Are you critics or something???????Please calm down!!!!!!!Will you ever see Celine again?I don't care what you say!The whole show was amazing!I was right in front of Celine with many many many people sing with her and dancing!So much energy!!!So much power!!!I loved that!!!!The most people was crying and the rest clapping!Did you cry Martin?Or you were so hard there too???????Please don't make this dissapointing critics anymore!I enjoyed this two hours with my friends! and some other members of this forum.So don't make reviews that they prove me ike a lier.We don't care about your critics otr the burgers and mc donalds you are talking about.THis moment with all th fans around her crying and singing was incredible and scary!If you want a show without people crying,feeling warm,singing etc go to Madonna.Celine is a sensitive artist!

Oh my god - and you tell me to calm down?

I know its always not so nice to read something negative if you enjoyed yourself so much - and I am happy for you that you did, I really am.
And believe me, it is not my intention do destroy any memories or good feelings you have about the concert.

I did have great 2 hours as well - as I said, I was screaming like mad.

But the whole Celine-thing is not my religion - so please allow me to have some critical thoughts as well.
I love her, I really do (still), but I think the show was just not that great. She had amazing moments and as I said earlier, I would pay the 180 EUR again just to hear that amazing "My love" again. Magical.

And again - I am not critizising her as a person or an artist.

I am critizising the whole production - "we will rock you" was strange, carefully said.
And I think I am just overdone with the old arrangements of the songs - heared them too often, and to me it seemed that she was not into those as much as she was into the new songs.
The stage was nothing but cheap.
And it to me it felt like - a lot of people also posted that opinion in other threads - that is what "i do my job and get outta here as fast as i can" -thing.
It just didn´t work that well for me.

But - don´t kill me - it is just my opinion.
Also, a lot of people I talked to afterwards shared my thoughts.

By the way, critics in the local newspapers are out now - very mixed.
Every paper mentions the fact that stadium was almost empty.
One wrote that she is doing her shows like an entertainment robot and that ít felt like she just finished an afternoon show and rushed back to the stage to do the evening show.

I don´t care much about critics but I kinda felt that way too.

[VintageCeline]

WOW!! Thankyou for all the pictures/videos.. and all the mixed reviews of the show!!

The video of Alone sounded amazing! I want to see the new intro and the whole playback issue...hmm.

I totally agree, it does depend on where you sit, but nether the less, It a once in a lifetime opportunity for most to see Celine LIVE in concert on their home town.

So now Celine is on her way to Switzerland, I wonder if she says anything about EUROVISION. lol

i am sure she does  

besides all the things i was not so happy about - the new stuff she did was sooo much fun.

"alone" was great
"my love" was probably one of the best live songs i have ever heared
"taking chances" was also very very good
i even enjoyed "eyes on me" - though i did not like that song so much initially
"shadow of love" did not work that well for me
"the show must go on" was also amazing - the chorus was just sooo powerfull
also the new version of "i´m alive" was very cool

so everytime she got the chance to present something fresh she was so into it....

i am curious if you feel the same way about the old things with the old arrangement - i think she has done them way too often in the same old version.

but as i said - the new stuff blew me away

Unbelievable that it's over for Germany now   !!!

[CSCfan]

Thanks for those great videos!!

How cool she said "Is that alright Munich??" first and then "Ist that gut Munchen??"

Btw, did the technical error during IACBTMN happen in the part before that clip?

[Dionesque]

Mathias, she said that every German city - at least during all the concerts I've been to, hehe!

"Is that allright, Berlin/Köln/Hamburg?"
"Ist das gut, Berlin/Köln/Hamburg????"

Manuel hopes that the underwhelming box-office performance of the German leg of the tour will stay as the EXCEPTION.

SNOWWHITE - I am really sorry to read comments like yours!

"Please don`t post disappointing critics anymore"!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Is it against any forum rule, to have a different opinion than the majority??

Those (few) persons who were disappointed have the same right to post their opinion here, dont they?

Nobody calls you a lier when he/she reports of different impressions....


I would  - of course - be very happy if I had the same experience as you had - believe me....

I dont think that it has to do with only where you were seated.
In 1999 I didn`t have a better seat (quite far awy from the stage) and i was crying from the biginning to the nd of the concert cause I was so touched!!!!!

you're welcome

yeah I started recording right after the error (or because of it)... sorry I missed it

[celine4evauk]

Thanks for all the reviews and videos. I love hearing about the other shows on the tour.
I personally think a show is what you make it. If you want to sit there and take it all in, then fair enough. They're probably there just to hear celine - not fussed about the stage/ dancers etc. If you get up and dance and sing along, then good for you. Every show i've gone to i've always been determined to enjoy it, and not feel like i've wasted money on expensive seats by worrying about the stage etc. Like someone said before me, if you want to see an expensive stage with special effects and huge outfits, and not that great a vocalist i recommend Madonna or Kylie. Celine has never been on tour with an outrageous stage etc, its always about her voice.
If she never tours again after this, do you really want to have critical memories like this? I know i wouldn't. Everyone has an opinion, and thoughts. But i'd feel quite sad if my last memories of her live were quite negative. But that's just me.
I would love for celine, after her break and maybe baby number 2, to base somewhere in the world again - vegas again?, i wouldn't mind. That way she can have the expensive stage and outfits etc, and get to  do the show she wants to do. Plenty of time to change things, rework numbers and maybe even do "fans" shows, singing the songs we've always wanted to hear her sing.  I'd travel anywhere in this world to hear her sing live, old or new songs, hers or covers. And all the while she's happy, healthy and enjoying the shows too - i know i will!!!   

[mojo84]

hallo celine-fans:)

jetzt will ich auch mal meinen kommentar abgeben, aber nur in deutsch, weil die übersetzung erst ins englische mir jetzt zu lange dauert!)
mein deutsch ist wesentlich besser, hoffe ich zumindest!

das konzert in münchen war einfach genial, leider für mich das letzte von ihrer welttour.
aber ich freu mich auf las vegas 2010 ( wenns doch tatsächlich passieren wird)
---> VORFREUDE IST DIE SCHÖNSTE FREUDE

was mir auch sehr gut gefallen hat, war das "kleine" fantreffen am ende. war schön euch alle mal zu sehen, auch wenns zu kurz war!aber man sieht sich wieder.

also liebe grüße an alle, die sich an mich erinnern. (ich war der mit dem poster im rucksack!!!!)  
und natürlich auch an alle, die mich nicht kennen, denn freunde von celine, sind auch meine freunde!!!!   

ganz liebe grüße.....sascha

p.s. ich versuche auch mal,paar fotos hochzuladen, wenn ich für die technik nicht zu blöd bin.

Genau! I`m also very much looking forward to seeing her again. I don`t know if I can afford to go in any of the concerts left in this world tour. But if she`ll be back in Vegas after the tour (or anywhere else) I`ll be there.

It`s a pity that the concerts have not been sold out in Germany.  I`m sure it`s because there were too many concerts in Germany (like many of you have been saying). Also the fact that the European football championship-games have been going on at the same time, has probably affected the number of people in the audience, since Germany is playing. This has also been posted here in Finland. "Celine Dion suffered audience loss because of a football game."  

Anyway, I`m glad that most of you had a great concert!

  Apparently I can`t use the quotes.
